Episode #23 – Pickle Rat Morty

In this episode we talk about the rumored Star Trek series by Nicholas Meyer, the “post an unpopular opinion” meme, the creators of Rick & Morty receiving a jug of McDonald’s Szechuan Sauce, and we trail off into a conversation about Daym Drops and spicy food. But we spend most of this episode trying to think of the name of a lesser known Gene Roddenberry series. (It was Earth: Final Conflict, by the way.)

Topics:

The rumor of the Nicholas Meyer “Khan series” and how it may (or may) not fit in with Star Trek: Discovery.

Chris confuses Earth 2 with Earth: Final Conflict (which was the Roddenberry joint).

Alex’s kid is going into high school.

Chris goes for an obscure joke from a lesser-known Mel Brooks movie and seems to be proud of it.

Stuff we made up: Tiny Trek Adventures, Star Trek Babies, Tiny Spock!

The “Post An Unpopular Opinion” meme. (See link below to a Radio Times article about Peter Davison’s comments regarding the casting of Jodie Whittaker as the 13th Doctor.)
